dermatory Salicinic Pore Clear Black Pad
Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read
Read on 2026-09-11
What is this product?
A twenty-one item toner pad whose working ingredient is disclosed with a number: 살리실릭애씨드 at 4,500 ppm, or 0.45 percent, sixth on the panel. That is below the 2 percent ceiling common for leave-on BHA products, and this is a wipe-off pad rather than a leave-on step. A second acid, 석시닉애씨드 at 10 ppm, is four hundred and fifty times smaller and is a trace rather than a co-active. Five of the botanical entries are Camellia sinensis at different fermentation grades (green, black, oolong, yellow, pu-erh) rather than five different plants. There is no fragrance, no alcohol, and the comedogenicity screen is empty because the formula has no lipid phase. Two findings bound the record. The marketing headline claims 5 percent charcoal and no charcoal ingredient exists anywhere on the regulated panel; a pad-fabric reading is possible but nothing archived states it. And no brand-operated page appears at all, so the ingredient panel rests on two independent retail surfaces that match byte for byte.
What makes it different?
The sharpest separator here is a conflict rather than a feature. The product's own headline sells a 5 percent charcoal embossed pad, and charcoal appears nowhere on the statutory ingredient panel, with the token hits all resolving to duplicate markup of that one sentence. The second separator is about how the record was built and it is unusual for this collection: no brand-operated surface exists in the archive at all, not even a home page, so the ingredient panel cannot be first-party by any route. What makes it usable is that two independent retail surfaces, a Market Kurly statutory notice and an Olive Young corpus record, carry the same twenty-one items with byte-for-byte agreement after whitespace normalisation. Absent that convergence the panel would not have been adoptable.
